Answer:

x = 8 or

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><em>Completing The Square</em><em>:</em></h2>

x² - 6x - 16 = 0

Here,

a = 1

b = -6

c = -16

Now,

x² - 6x + [6/2(1)]² - [6/2(1)]² - 16 = 0

x² - 6x + (6/2)² - (6/2)² - 16 = 0

x² - 6x + (3)² - (3)² - 16 = 0

(x - 3)² - 9 - 16 = 0

(x - 3)² - 25 = 0

(x - 3)² = 25

x - 3 = +-√25

x - 3 = +- 5

x = 3 +- 5

x = 3 + 5 or x = 3 - 5

<em><u>x = 8 or x = -2</u></em>

Hope it's helpful

A biker travels 5 feet in 0.5 seconds. At this exact speed, how far will the biker travel in a minute?
Pavel [41]
A minute has 60 seconds, therefore we will deal with seconds now And since we have it that the biker travels 5 feet every 0.5 seconds, lets multiply that by 2 to get the traveled distance per second to make it easier 5*2=10 Finally, multiply 10 feet by 60 seconds(1 minute) = 600 feet
